Coffee and Croissants

A good start to the day!

In the morning, when the sun peeks through
The smell of coffee and croissants ensue
A warm embrace with a buttery kiss
Each bite and sip, pure morning bliss

The aroma wafts and tickles the nose
Hints of warmth and comfort it shows
The steam, a dance of coffee delight
Whispering, “wake up and enjoy the sight”

The buttery croissant, oh so flaky
To share or not, a decision tricky
A reward for a peaceful morning start
The perfect pair, never to part

Sip by sip, bite after bite
Perfection in every delight
Coffee and croissants in the morning
A treat for the senses, a sweet awakening.

Breakfast

I like my Spanish breakfasts but I do love a full English from time to time!



As I sit here with my Spanish toast,
I can’t help but think of what I love most.
A breakfast that’s hearty, a breakfast that’s grand,
A full English breakfast, the king of the land.

The smell of bacon, the sizzle of eggs,
The sound of black pudding, as it hits the pan’s edge.
The aroma of mushrooms, the hash browns crisp,
And a juicy tomato, ready to be missed.

I long for the taste of beans on toast,
A meal that’s filling, and warms me the most.
But here I am, with my Spanish fare,
As my mind wanders to that English affair.

I’ll have to wait for another day,
When I can indulge in that full English way.
Until then, I’ll savor this Spanish delight,
And dream of that breakfast, with all my might.
